Somehow,
billions of people cooperate to make this all happen by doing many jobs,
building many things loving and connecting in so many ways that there
is both order and madness, a kaleidoscope with infinite worlds, each
breathtakingly beautiful, arranging rearranging themselves into countless
patterns.
Innovation and creativity do not flow into the minds of some special people but it comes from moving ideas from one place to another. As the science fiction writer William Gibson said: 'the future is already here, it is just not evenly distributed." Many are satisfied to achieve and fill a single role and that is valuable and important others are willing to take the risk and experience the uncertainty of creating new places for themselves between the social worlds.
Each world has something to offer to the others but it requires effort bridge them: a new vocabulary, an uncertain identity, and a risk of seeming uncommitted; an outsider. But, every world has something to offer to the others and in our connected world the opportunity is greater in almost inconceivable ways. Innovation and creativity do not spring from an inner well, but is borrowing from in one world from another and just plain trying things.
The future is already here, it is just not evenly distributed.
- William Gibson

The "About" section is things I have done in the past, the "Ideas" section contains ideas I have written, a library of links to papers I have found useful and inspiriting and some links to other resources places to generate ideas. The "Activity" section has the things I am currently working on.
